The Morphogenesis of Cranial Sutures in Zebrafish [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Using morphological, histological, and TEM analyses of the cranium, we provide a detailed description of bone and suture growth in zebrafish. Based on expression patterns and localization, we identified osteoblasts at different degrees of maturation. Our

Augmentation of BMP Signaling in Cranial Neural Crest Cells Leads to Premature Cranial Sutures Fusion through Endochondral Ossification in Mice [PDF]
JBMR Plus, 2023 Craniosynostosis is a congenital anomaly characterized by the premature fusion of cranial sutures. Sutures are a critical connective tissue that regulates bone growth; their aberrant fusion results in abnormal shapes of the head and face.

Finite Element Analysis of the Effects of Different Shapes of Adult Cranial Sutures on Their Mechanical Behavior [PDF]
BioengineeringCranial sutures play critical roles in load distribution and neuroprotection, with their biomechanical performance intimately linked to morphological complexity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of different morphologies of cranial

Alleviating abnormal stress on compressed cranial sutures: a potential mechanism for treating and preventing deformational plagiocephaly [PDF]
Italian Journal of PediatricsBackground Abnormal stress in cranial sutures is strongly related to deformational plagiocephaly (DP) and is responsible for morphological changes in the skull, facial asymmetry, and abnormal facial tension.

Sensitivity and specificity of magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography for the determination of the developmental state of cranial sutures and synchondroses in the dog [PDF]
BMC Veterinary Research, 2019 Background During skull ontogenesis, growth centers in the skull base and calvarial bones allow gradual expansion of the cranial vault. Premature growth termination of cranial base synchondroses and/or calvarial sutures can result in devastating skull ...

Cranial suture headache: An extracranial head pain syndrome originating in the cranial sutures of the skull [PDF]
Cephalalgia Reports, 2021 Objective: To define a new type of head pain syndrome termed “cranial suture headache” which is a localized headache originating along the cranial suture lines of the skull. Background: Well localized headaches maybe extracranial in origin. As trigeminal

Evolution of accessory bones in cetacean skull coupled with decreasing rate of ossification of cranial sutures [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe skulls of cetaceans (whales, dolphins and porpoises) are distinguished by incomplete ossification of cranial sutures during their lifetime. We suggested suture ossification may correlate with the evolution of rarely reported accessory bones and ...

Biomechanical Dynamics of Cranial Sutures during Simulated Impulsive Loading [PDF]
Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2015 Background. Cranial sutures are deformable joints between the bones of the skull, bridged by collagen fibres. They function to hold the bones of the skull together while allowing for mechanical stress transmission and deformation. Objective.
